Spec Value Brand line OPI Collection OPI Spring 2026 The New Opicons Collection Colours in this box 12 Shade range its block of shade numbers Bottle size 0.5 oz System OPI GelColor: base coat, two colour coats, top coat Cure under an LED lamp Gel wear about 3 weeks Duplicates none within a box Condition new Why buy the drop as a set
OPI builds a collection to be seen as a group, and OPI Spring 2026 The New Opicons Collection is no different. Taking all 12 shades in one order keeps the drop together on the front shelf, which is how seasonal colour actually sells, and saves ordering the same shades one at a time. Every colour comes as a matched gel and lacquer pair.
How the colours are applied
- Prep: file to shape, push back the cuticle, buff off the shine and dehydrate the plate.
- Base gel: one thin coat, capped at the free edge, cured under an LED lamp.
- Colour coat one: one thin coat, kept off the skin, cured.
- Colour coat two: a second coat brings the pigment to full depth, cured again.
- Top gel: one coat, cured, then wipe the tacky layer if your top coat leaves one.
- The lacquer half: air-dries over a base coat at home, no lamp needed.
Who this box suits
- Salons that refresh the front shelf every drop
- Keeping the season's shades together instead of scattered through the wall
- Retail display, where a collection sells better as a group
How it compares
Against the full OPI wall, a collection set keeps the premium shelf current without carrying every shade. Against singles from the same drop, the set is one order instead of several, with the collection kept together.
Storing a box this size
Keep the bottles upright and out of direct sunlight. Daylight starts curing gel in a bottle that is half empty, and a box that sits in a window for a season will have thickened bottles at the front of the row. Wipe each neck before capping so the lids do not seize, and roll pigment-heavy or glitter shades between your palms rather than shaking them, which puts bubbles into the first coat.
Stocked alongside every OPI shade ND carries, the OPI lacquer range and OPI Intelli-Gel combo sets.
